FREEBS - Free Book Store Release

I'm looking at 1.12 book.php and I see that AmazonSearch.php method is called on line 105.

Not sure what's up here yet.

 

Wow....160534 books in your store and I see you have over 200000 pages indexed by Google. You are doing much better than I am. I can't get more than 10000 pages indexed and that goes up and down like a yo-yo.

Question time ......how many of those pages does the coop show.....are the indexed pages all bookstore pages....are you selling many books.....which search engine is bringing the traffic.... is their a significant amount of traffic.

Sorry I can't answer your question, haven't come across that one.

 

LOL, can't answer my question but have lots of them for me.

The API tool shows roughly 45,000 indexed (last I checked). However I had over 250,000 pages indexed (using Google.com and not the API). My forum at www.clantt.com has about 50,000 posts or so with two archives that make up about 50% of the indexed pages.

I WAS selling a ton of books (you probably can see my progress in this thread somewhere). However, what ended up happening was Yahoo turned to crap and my sales suffered.

Google has now started to bring a lot of bookstore traffic recently, however this issue is hurting me. It could be server related (I'm on a shared server, not dedicated).

However, I make more money from my blog than the entire site. Go figure

 

Ok, just set up a brand new store at www.clantt.com/TestStore/

I'm getting this error when running p3.php:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /var/www/html/TestStore/includes/AmazonSearch.php on line 276

 

I have been saving them waiting to pounce

Thanks for answering, I started out selling a couple of books a day but now it has dropped to a couple a week.
Yahoo still send the same amount of bookstore related traffic to two sites but I have the bookstore on another four sites that Yahoo don't want to know about

I get a bit of traffic from MSN and Google to the stores but it's very small.
Google has dropped the bookstore on two sites, one site that had the most books, but still show indexed pages on the others . It's a real crapshoot.

 

Again, I opened 1.12 p3.php, there is no call to an amazonsearch.php method even near there.

I still can't offer help, but I'm here trying.

 

Hmm...very perplexing. Talked with my host and he can't figure it out.

I'm stumped.

 

Are the php urls supposed to have .html after them?

http://www.clantt.com/sports_books/book.php?isbn=B00002DEB0.html

 

Yes, that's SEO mode. You seem to have php URLs for the Index and mod-rewrite URLs(html) for books. I dunno how ya pulled that one off!

Seriously, there's something in the config.php off maybe or the .htaccess. I'm trying, but I'm well into a 6 pack now man.

 

You need to swtich it to SEO mode in the config file.

 

Well, I had it all in SEO mode just fine and dandy and just made that change like 15 minutes ago (from SEO TO PHP) to see if that would solve the problem.

 

Even if I strip of the .html on the php urls for the books I still see that error.

 

Also, last night I applied T2DMan's SEO Vbulletin hacks. Anything in there you can see that could remotely cause this?

http://forum.time2dine.co.nz/showthread.php?t=98

 

That's a big .htaccess file. How did ya add the FREEBS stuff to it?

What's your config.php look like?

 

Which .htaccess file? The one on my server or listed in T2Dman's SEO VB stuff? I have a .htaccess in each bookstore dir.

<?php

The only requirement to use this code is one link back to me on the main book shop page. Fair enough?
You get all sales and all the SEO benefits of possibly hundreds or thousands of content pages.

Code (markup):

 

Ok, I was tired last night. We need the .htaccess file that comes with FREEBS in the books folder if it's not there already.

Forget about the top level htaccess file.

 

Sorry, read my edit. There's the config.php listed.

Here's my .htaccess in the bookstore dir.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /sports_books
RewriteRule ^isbn([^.]+).html$ book.php?isbn=$1
RewriteRule ^key-([^.]+)-([0-9]+).html$ index.php?key=$1&p=$2 [L]

Code (markup):

 

zip up your books folder and send it to me. I want to see your files. I'll PM my email addy. Clean or exclude the config.php of your passwords.

I don't see anything wrong with what we see so far.

 

Alright. Sent.

 

OK, this is an issue in the amazonsearch class. Soemthing internal to the class is not available for some reason. I have no clue why however.
